10 Year Plan (Kinda)

I have to write this out or my brain will explode. This is a ten year plan for my life if things go exactly how I imagine (which we all know they never do). I'll probably change my mind again in a few months anyway, but for now, I just like to think about this.

1. From now until 2015, work and play and save up whatever money I can. If possible, go on that road trip I've been planning forever during this time.

2. 2015 through 2017, go to community college and get my Associates degree. Continue saving up money wherever possible.

3. 2017 through 2019, teach English in Taiwan. Live as frugally as possible so I can save as much of my income as I can.

4. 2019 through 2021, return to the US to earn my Bachelor's degree. I should have enough saved from Taiwan to be able to do this at a good college.

5. 2021 through whenever, with a Bachelor's degree and two years of experience teaching English, I can choose any Asian country I want to teach in. (In Taiwan you only need an Associates.) In the past I would probably have chosen Japan, but it's expensive to live there and you can't have pets. I'd rather choose another country and just visit Japan a lot. I'd also like to spend some time in New Zealand.
